Predicting the top players out West

There are still a number of high profile recruits out West waiting to make their final decision. Signing day should be busy once again and will feature several headliners from the West.

Murphy seems likely to sign with Stanford tomorrow.

Here's a look at a few of the bigger story lines to watch on signing day with some final predictions.

Kyle Murphy

The nation's No. 11 ranked recruit has it narrowed down to two programs. It will either be USC or Stanford that gets the nod tomorrow. Murphy is a solid five-star lineman that does a lot of things really well.

Final Prediction: Stanford

Confidence Level: 80%

Davonte Neal

This won't necessarily one to watch tomorrow as Neal will wait until after signing day to decide. He's considering a visit to Oklahoma or Arizona on Jan. 10 so it will be after that time at least. Lots of folks think Ohio State has the upper hand but the Neal family denies a favorite. It is pretty tough to call at this point but I'll just throw out a guess that Urban Meyer adds a late piece to his class.

Final Prediction: Ohio State

Andrus Peat seems torn between his decision still today.

Confidence Level: 20%

Darreus Rogers

Rogers has been a long time commit of USC, in fact for over a year now. However the new staff at ASU has been able to come in late and make a run for the Nation's No. 58 ranked player. At the end of the day, I see him sticking with his original commitment tomorrow. Rogers is one of the premier wide outs in the class of 2012.

Final Prediction: USC

Confidence Level: 75%

Andrus Peat

Peat has been tough to gauge throughout most of his recruitment. Most assume he will follow his brother to Nebraska. Which is not unreasonable. However, keep in mind, Todd Peat did not have the same Stanford offer that Andrus has. Stanford has been the real dark horse and the latest suggest a real desire to stay closer to home. USC made a late push but seems to be on the outside looking in with less than 24 hours to go. It's going to be close between Stanford and Nebraska. Peat told me today he had decided but wasn't "100-percent" on his choice.

Final Prediction: Stanford

Shittu will likely stick with his original commitment, Stanford.

Confidence Level: 50%

Cyler Miles

As of last night Miles told me he still had not made a final decision. He also did not rule out the possibility he could wait until after signing day. He's only considering Washington and USC at this point. If he were to switch from Washington, that would be a big blow to the Huskies. On the other hand, it would be a huge pickup for the Trojans. It's really tough to call on Miles, but we've got to make one.

Final Prediction: Washington

Confidence Level: 30%

Aziz Shittu

Shittu originally committed to Stanford back in the Spring. But since he was not admitted academically, he backed off that commitment and took more trips. In the end he considered several Pac-12 schools including USC, Cal and Washington. In the end we expect the Nation's No. 80 ranked prep goes back to his first love, the Cardinal.

Final Prediction: Stanford

Treggs will be a big keep for a Cal class that seems to be unraveling.

Confidence Level: 85%

Bryce Treggs

After his long-time commitment to Cal, Treggs decided to give a few other schools a look with the coaching changes. In the end, UCLA made a serious run and may have been in the lead at a certain point. But once again, in the end, we expect he sticks with his first love and remains a Bear.

Final Prediction: Cal

Confidence Level: 90%

Raymond Ford

Definitely one of the more interesting recruitments this season. Ford committed to UCLA early, but backed away after the coaching changes. Nebraska, Cal, Washington, Utah and Washington State have all been in the mix. We expect tomorrow either Washington State or Utah gets the nod. It could easily go either way, but we expect the Cougars land a real sleeper here.

Final Prediction: Washington State

Confidence Level: 50%

Jaydon Mickens

Mickens has also been on the recruiting roller coaster. After an early commitment to USC, he opened things up and seemed to be favoring Oregon and Washington. But a new option from Oklahoma State came in and seemed to make an impact. Mickens is explosive in space. He could be a real nice snag for the 'boys on signing day.

Final Prediction: Oklahoma State

Confidence Level: 85%
